In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Ciprofloxacin may increase the blood levels and effects of sildenafil. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience nausea, shortness of breath, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, visual disturbances, ringing in the ears, vision or hearing loss, chest pain or tightness, irregular heartbeat, and/or priapism (prolonged and painful erection unrelated to sexual activity), as these may be signs and symptoms of excessive sildenafil levels. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of sildenafil, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The possibility of prolonged and/or increased pharmacologic effects of sildenafil should be considered.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if sildenafil is coadministered with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Dosage adjustments may be appropriate for sildenafil whenever a CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is added to or withdrawn from therapy based on efficacy and side effects. Patients should be advised to promptly notify their physician if they experience pain or tightness in the chest or jaw, irregular heartbeat, nausea, shortness of breath, visual disturbances, syncope, or prolonged erection (greater than 4 hours).
